<h3>Issues</h3>

<h4>

<p class=Darken>General</p>
<ul>
 <li>Front and Rear speakers are swapped by default (this is intentional) - explanation why <!-- <? echo("--"); echo(">"); klink("rear"); echo("<!--"); ?>-->here</a>.</li>
 <li>The default speaker configuration is 'Stereo' (2.0) -- you can change this setting by tweaking the 'Surrounder' options.</li>
 <li>EAX/EAX2.0/EAX3.0 not fully supported.</li>
 <li>MIDI synth volume control may not function in realtime.</li>
 <li>If you have ACPI-aware system you may need to disable it. Refer to <!-- <? echo("--"); echo(">"); klink("acpi"); echo("<!--"); ?>-->ACPI guide</a> for details.</li>
 <li>You may experience certain audio artifacts in 3-D games - in order to solve this issue select 'Wave 4/5' device as default or turn off hardware acceleration in your application.</li>
 <li>Certain hardware configurations can cause constant beeping instead of sound - please review our forum for details.</li>
</ul>

<p class=Darken>SoundFonts</p>
<ul>
  <li>Maximum single sample size for SoundFonts may be limited by OS memory settings. Review our <!-- <? echo("--"); echo(">"); klink("faq"); echo ("<!--"); ?> -->FAQ</a> for details</li>

  <li>Settings for phases, levels, etc. may not be optimized for uncommon AC97 codec versions.</li>
  <li>SB006x / SB010x cards have an issue with ASIO input and output mappings that can't be fixed (a hardware problem).</li>
  <li>SB020x cards (Dell OEM SB Live!) contain different EMU10k1 chips and they aren't supported at the moment.</li>
</ul>
